This book is a collection of Ji Xianlin's classic essays, which selects his wonderful works from 1933 to 2006. It is divided into four themes, which respectively show Ji Xianlin's goodwill and true feelings for the world, his love for ordinary life, his self-transformation of his inner self, and his clear conscience for life in the world. We have to experience a lot in life, including birth, old age, illness and death, ups and downs, and only by keeping a happy heart can we see the years calmly and cultivate our hearts as calm as water.
Ji Lao glimpses the vast world from the subtleties and captures thought-provoking details in life, so that the lonely can find comfort and the confused can find direction. There is joy in your heart and you are confident in your steps. I hope you can find the freedom in your heart in this book.
Reader comments
This book is like a dear old friend, sharing every joy in life with you. The words written by Ji Lao are simple and unpretentious, but they can make people feel his love for life. I particularly like his description of the old cat Huzi, "It is never afraid of anyone. If anyone wants to hit it, whether it is with a feather duster or a bamboo pole, it will never avoid it, but will attack forward with fierce voice and sound." In just a few strokes, Huzi's bravery is vividly displayed. Reading this book is like tasting a cup of fragrant tea, allowing people to find peace and freedom in ordinary life.
